78: Chapter 78 So your sins are also half his.
" You, you're really letting us go! "
" Why aren't you rolling away yet? " Kang Dalei glared, and the two of them vanished in a flash.
" Ptooey, two spineless playboys. "
The two guards were furious, their eyes practically spitting fire as they looked at Kang Dalei.
" You little thief, do you know who I am? Do you know the price of kidnapping this Venerable? "
" I don't care who you are to anyone; you're certainly nobody to me. If you were someone to me, I'd let you go. "
" You bastard, how dare you tease me! "
The female guard was so angry that her lungs felt like they were about to explode.
Such shamelessness; it was the most brazen thing she had ever seen.
Kang Dalei turned his gaze to the old woman and the Wrinkled Old Man.
" What do you say? "
Seeing that the first two were able to leave after handing over the demon cores, and not being brainless villains who would keep their mouths shut and refuse to pay at this late stage,
they didn't hesitate at all. They pulled out their storage bags, and were released immediately.
Seeing all four leave, only the two female guards remained. At this moment, the other female guard couldn't bear the suspense and was about to reveal where her storage bag was, but she was stopped by the arrogant female guard.
" Yuer, don't hand it over. Let's see what this little thief dares to do to me. "
Thump, thump. Two more punches.
At this, the female guard who had been ready to hand over the demon cores and leave could no longer hold back and said,
" Stop hitting me, I'll hand it over, I'll hand it over! The storage bag is at my waist. "
Following her words, Kang Dalei quickly found the storage bag hidden in the lining of her waist, and she was released.
Now only the arrogant female guard remained, but looking at her, it seemed she had no intention of handing it over.
" Don't worry, if you don't hand it over, I have plenty of ways to sell you for a good price. "
Kang Dalei didn't care if she played dumb.
Demon cores were the most important thing.
Pulling on the iron chain, Kang Dalei sat on the carriage, letting the arrogant female guard run behind it.
" Bastard, bastard! How dare you humiliate me like this? I will grind your bones to dust! "
He dragged the female guard around Xibai Pass and rode away, causing the other Divine Venerables of Xibai Pass hiding in the shadows, watching the battle, to break out in cold sweat.
" This kid is truly reckless, daring to touch the great-granddaughter of a King-Sealing Divine Venerable. "
" What is this kid's background? Even the invincible Great Sun Realm expert, General Huan, is no match for him. "
" He looks like a body cultivator, with thousands of catties of force in a single punch, but I don't feel any baleful aura; it's like he's fighting purely with raw strength. "
Inside the carriage, Kang Dalei happily tallied the spoils from this fishing expedition. If it weren't for wanting to trick more people, he would have punched that couple to death.
The Wrinkled Old Man General Huan provided five thousand demon cores, the female guard three thousand, the two male guards one thousand each, and the old woman one thousand, totaling eleven thousand.
" I'm rich. " Lying on Chengyi's lap, Kang Dalei was a bit carried away.
But the next second, the voice in his mind instantly sobered him up.
" Oh no. "
[ Ding-dong, congratulations to the host for obtaining eleven thousand demon cores. Would you like to exchange them for points? ]
" Do I have a choice? " Kang Dalei almost couldn't help cursing this damn system.
[ Ding-dong, congratulations to the host for exchanging for one hundred thousand and thirty-five points. Would you like to upgrade the demon-slaying blade? ]
" I... upgrade. "
Kang Dalei said weakly.
He had no autonomy at all, okay? This system was still hypocritically claiming it was voluntary and not mandatory.
What a pain.
[ Ding-dong, don't force me to slap you. ]
[ Ding-dong, congratulations to the host for spending one hundred thousand points. The demon-slaying blade has been upgraded to a mid-grade divine weapon. ]
Cough, cough, cough.
After a fit of coughing, Kang Dalei lifted the curtain to check the condition of the arrogant female guard outside.
She was in good condition; aside from messy hair, bruised cheeks, chapped lips, and a hole in her white-green boots, she was fine.
Kang Dalei finally showed a satisfied smile.
" Go to the brothel, let's sell her first. "
After about a few dozen minutes of travel, the four of them soon arrived at the Yixiang Brothel in Xibai Pass.
" Madam, are you doing business? "
" Oh my, young master, our shop isn't open yet. If you want to have fun, come back at night. "
" I'm asking if you want a girl, a pretty girl, and a chaste one at that. "
Kang Dalei was speechless. How could someone as serious as him visit a brothel? Impossible.
The next second, inside the Yixiang Brothel.
" Madam, this girl of yours is not bad. Holy crap, there's even a little sister in the Marrow Cleansing Realm! "
" Ptooey, shameless! " Seeing Kang Dalei with his arms around girls, the arrogant female guard spat viciously.
She despised men who wallowed in degradation.
If he couldn't even resist a little temptation of beauty, what kind of future could he have?
" Twenty demon cores? Too little. Look at her, she's fair and tender, and still a maiden. Add more. "
" Listen, customer, you are really strange. You don't want silver, but you want demon cores. But I only have this many demon cores on hand; I really can't add more! "
The madam looked bitter. Bringing two good-looking girls and trying to sell another good-looking girl was one thing.
But to demand only demon cores? As a brothel owner, where would she get so many demon cores?
Seeing that the madam really didn't have any extra demon cores, Kang Dalei decided not to force it. He casually asked for a hundred taels of silver notes and was finally satisfied enough to hand over the female guard.
" You want to sell me? " Only now did the female guard, who had been following behind and constantly despising Kang Dalei, realize what was happening. She looked at Kang Dalei in disbelief.
In all of Xibai Pass—no, in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty—aside from the Seven Kings of the World, when had she, Chu Xuan'er, ever been insulted like this?
So she repeated it, unable to believe it.
" You want to sell me? "
This time, her tone was significantly colder.
But who was Kang Dalei? He didn't give a damn about her.
After signing the deed with the madam, he took the demon cores and silver notes and turned to leave.
The madam went to take the female guard's hand, but as soon as she touched her, she was sent flying dozens of meters away.
" You want to sell me? "
It was the same question, but compared to the previous confusion and the middle questioning, now there was clearly some anger.
Kang Dalei was a real man, and a man who kept his word.
Looking at the female guard, he punched down.
" I said, I have plenty of ways to get the demon cores. "
" So, you admit it? " The female guard continued to speak to herself.
But her eyes had changed, turning blood-red.
" What do you want to do? "
Puchi, puchi, puchi, puchi, puchi.
The moment Kang Dalei's voice fell, countless Sword Seals flew out from between the female guard's eyebrows, and a pressure from a King-Sealing Divine Venerable instantly swept across the entire Xibai Pass.
" A King-Sealing Sword Seal? "
" I want you to die, bastard. "
The Sword Seal descended, and Kang Dalei was covered by it.
After a long while, the Sword Seal dissipated, and the surroundings turned into ruins. The female guard looked at the Yixiang Brothel, now reduced to scorched earth, and revealed a satisfied smile.
" Originally, this Sword Seal was meant for me to kill a Demon King in exchange for military merit. It was you who forced me to use it. To die under the Sword Seal of a King-Sealing Divine Venerable, you can consider it an honor. "
The female guard turned around, her gaze locking onto the trembling madam in the corner, and said:
" Don't worry, I will compensate you. Come to my Guard General's mansion tomorrow, and I will give you the money. "
After finishing, the female guard glanced at the two girls, Qingyi and Chengyi, and shook her head.
" You two have good aptitude, but it's a pity you followed such a scoundrel. Therefore, his crimes are also half yours. "
The female guard curled her lips, and just as she was about to act, a mocking laugh from the ruins made her expression change drastically.
" Impossible. "
